There are people who are born and raised in Japan, or foreigners who married
Japanese people that may wish to obtain Japanese citizenship. In this case,
there is a need to submit applications to the Legal Affairs Bureau.
During the application, besides interviewing the applicant, there are many
documents required, such as the citizenship application, identification
documents, resumes, documentary proof of income and such.
Of course, besides documents from your home country, documents in Japanese are
also required.

procedures and recognized as an intermediary to submit applications for
applicants.

in acting as intermediaries for applications to the Immigration Bureau.
